Chapter 547 Indestructible Helmet

Chapter 547 Indestructible Helmet

The breeze gently brushed across the mountain ridges, bringing the freshness of ice and snow. The sky was as clear as a shallow pond. The cold moonlight spread out, and a few clouds were coated with a layer of faint silver edges. The snow-covered mountains reflected the moonlight, and the mountains were outlined with rolling contours.

On the flat ground sheltered from the wind on the ridge, a pair of outstanding-looking wizards and witches sat side by side. The witch rested her chin on her knees, looking at the bonfire rising in the woods in the distance, with a solemn expression on her delicate little face. That was the camp where the Death Eaters were stationed.

Hermione glanced at the cave where the Tall Horse was, and whispered without turning her head, "Loren, McNeill and Crouch have already reached an agreement with the current Tall Horse of the giants. Why are they still staying in the Ben Nevis Mountains instead of returning to report to their master as soon as possible?"

Loren spread out his palms, and cast a meticulous levitation spell to make the wand hover a few inches above his palms, spinning in the air with almost no resistance: "I don't know the details, but I guess they are repairing the road."

Hermione was stunned for a moment: "Repair the road...what do you mean?"

Loren looked at the spinning wand. "Hagrid can hardly move with just one giant, not to mention the dozens or hundreds of giants they want to take with them. Voldemort intends to bring the giants back to his service, but he is still dormant and cannot let the Ministry of Magic notice him. He certainly cannot transport so many giants back to London and keep them in captivity. He can only let them continue to live here and drive them to the battlefield when they can really be used."

"So they need to build a passage that is convenient for the giant to travel back and forth..." Hermione's eyes flashed with understanding. "It may be a portkey, or it may be a fireplace that is not monitored by the Floo Network, is that right?"

Loren nodded: "I think it's more likely to be a portkey. After all, our Professor Moody is experienced and good at making portkeys."

Hermione suddenly remembered the Goblet of Fire that was transformed into a portkey, and she couldn't help but feel a little worried: "We let Orr replace Gogoma as the giant Gogo, and let him take over the giant tribe and refuse to cooperate with the Death Eaters. But what if those people are unwilling to do so... The Death Eaters have found the location of the giant tribe, and we are about to leave here and return to Hogwarts. If Voldemort sends new Death Eaters, what should Orr and his sister do?"

"good question."

Loren canceled the levitation spell, grabbed the wand, and looked at a cave at the edge of the depression with a distant gaze: "After this is over, tell Brother and Sister Orr about your concerns and see what they plan to do. If a race wants to become stronger, it must learn to face threats from the outside world on its own. If they expect wizards to help solve every problem, they will always be slaves and appendages of wizards, not an independent race."

Hermione pursed her lips, her crystal eyes reflecting the moonlight, flashing with some worry.

Loren glanced at her, put his arm around her shoulders and shook them: "Let's talk about the battle plan later."

"Who didn't listen to me last night and now wants to discuss it?"

"Who is it? Huh? Tell me, I will definitely teach him a lesson." Loren pretended to be fierce and looked around, but he didn't find the target and had to give up. "It seems that he is not here. Let's talk about this later. Let's talk about McNeill and Crouch."

"..."

Hermione rolled her eyes.

Loren was completely blind to her disgust. He rubbed against her soft face and said with a grin, "When we face off against the two Death Eaters later, I will take care of Crouch. You will deal with McNeill. This will be your first duel practice."

"Oh."

After hearing the serious analysis, Hermione nodded obediently. She understood that this was a deliberate effort to cultivate her combat ability. With Loren's unreasonable blasting spells, weird mirror magic, and powerful transformation ability, it was not a problem for him to deal with two Death Eaters alone.

Loren put his arm around her shoulders, speaking as if he were analyzing some complex rune: "Although McNeill is a senior Death Eater who narrowly escaped trial more than a decade ago, his dueling ability is very average. Based on my observation of the magical brilliance in his body, he is not much stronger than an ordinary adult wizard. As long as you give full play to your usual practice level, it will be easy to defeat him. What you need to pay attention to is your mentality. He has been an executioner in the Dangerous Animal Disposal Committee for more than a decade. His methods are cruel and ruthless. You must stay calm and don't be disturbed by him..."

Hermione memorized every word of the battle instructions in her heart, just like she was reciting a passage of knowledge from a textbook, repeating it silently over and over again, and then putting it into practice according to what was said in the book.

……

Gugogagoma lives in the best and most spacious cave. This was originally the cave of Kakus and his wife. For more than ten years, all the good things of the entire giant tribe were stored in this cave. The soft furs of various animals were spread into thick blankets, and wind-dried meat strips were hung deep in the cave... But the most eye-catching thing is a ball of constantly leaping golden flames, placed in a plate made of stone. It does not require any firewood, and there is no annoying black smoke. It is always warm and bright, and always burns.

Gao Gao Ma grinned and turned his eyes. Not far away was a bronze metal helmet engraved with complex and mysterious patterns. When the two half-blood giants gave the helmet to the previous Gugkakus, they said that this helmet was indestructible and the giant wearing it would be invincible.

The two half-giants were short in stature, and it was hard to tell who was the most powerful warrior in the giant tribe. That fat, big-eared, stupid guy Kakus had long ago lost the right to sit in Gugo's position.

Unfortunately, that night, before Kakus could put on his helmet, he was pinned to the ground and beaten to death, bit off his neck, and sank his head into the lake. It was normal for the giant who killed Gugo to become the new Gugo...

"Ancient...ancient...immortal fire."

Gao Gao Ma couldn't pronounce its full name, but that didn't stop him from admiring the strange sight of the dancing flames. He sat up and blew towards the flames, and the shadows in the cave suddenly shook, as if the whole mountain was shaken by his breath.

The two giants in charge of guarding were so scared that they quickly sat up and shouted in panic, which made Gao Gaoma laugh out loud. Just as he was about to laugh at the two cowardly guys, he suddenly discovered that there was another figure among the swaying shadows on the stone wall.

A giant who was not very tall swung his arms and ran with big strides. As if in the blink of an eye, he rushed from the dark cave entrance to the two guarding giants. His fists made a slight cracking sound, and he lowered his shoulders and bent over, gathering power with his hook punches. At the same time, his two fists hit the two giants' lower abdomen, stomach and diaphragm.

"Ho...ho..."

The suffocating pain instantly made the two servants bend over and collapse to the side.

The face that should have been lying in the cave waiting to die was stained with a layer of golden glow of the flame. Crystal clear and slender streams of light floated on his skin, making the face with scars that had not yet faded look like a god. The young giant kicked away the two bodies that were limp on the ground and walked towards Gaogaoma step by step.

Gao Gao Ma's breathing became heavy. He quickly grabbed the helmet next to him and put it on his head, then roared at the young giant who was approaching.

"Roar!!!"

The deafening roar echoed repeatedly in the cave and finally released from the cave entrance, scaring the birds in the woods of Ben Nevis into flying panic.

Gaogaoma stamped his feet, bent down and lowered his shoulders, then rushed towards the young giant, wanting to use the same method as last time to hit him so that he would instantly lose his ability to resist.

Orr stopped, his muscles tensed, staring at Gaogaoma who was getting closer and closer, raised his fist high, estimated the distance, and punched down.

Boom!
The powerful impact knocked the twenty-five-foot strong body to the ground. The vibration and buzzing of the metal helmet made a dull sound like a bronze bell being struck by a hammer. Gao Gaoma fell to the ground, and the new Gugo's mind went blank.

A few drops of blood dripped from the helmet onto his forehead, hot and burning like flames.

The young giant Orr shook his torn right fist, slowly walked to Gaogaoma's side and squatted down, then clenched his fist again and punched the indestructible helmet again and again.

"Boom...boom...boom..."

The bright red blood flowed along the ground, and the powerful kinetic energy was transmitted to the rocks, causing the entire mountain to shake slightly.
